Stats in how much revenue you get and traffic. WIth the DOT US thats what matters not the google stats. DOT US names that get no real good traffic and revenue are basically reg fee names. Mostley speaking. I had good DOT US names that had good searches etc but never got any revenue. I even had some that got me good traffic but no revenue at all. One that comes to mind I owned was TheFlop.us . Poker names had great traffic but no revenue. Droped it last year. Most of my other one or two word.US had stats kike that and I dropped them,. the extension is just a killer. Personally always had high hopes for .us but I have even accepted the reality of DOT US.
